Recently, cases of viral influenza have become more frequent everywhere. This has happened in the Krasnodar region. Virus strains are different, and swine flu virus is not excluded. Many schools are closed for quarantine. There are lethal outcomes, in rehabilitation departments there are many heavy patients. Everyone knows that flu is fraught with complications. All this is very sad, and the saddest thing is that people do not know how to protect themselves and their children from this scourge, and ignorance entails fear and panic. Conversely, knowledge, as we know, is power. Therefore, natural medicine states that it is not necessary to be afraid of viruses and microbes, but to know why they visit us and multiply intensively and impudently in our cells and tissues, and even seek to destroy us.

You don't get the flu because you're infected with a virus. Speaking of the virus: it has already hit Europe and is on its way to us. It is another type of virus "Sydney", which caused an epidemic in 2010 and killed 150 thousand people. What to expect from the stranger is unknown. Vaccines and drugs against it have not been invented in time. In this situation, the population panics, and people rush to buy any advertised remedy, just to avoid getting sick. The desire is commendable, but to make it happen, you need to understand the following: the flu virus is only a reason, not the cause of the disease. The true cause of the flu is the slags and toxins that clog our cells, tissues and organs in abundance.

What does horseradish do? Due to its content of active enzymes that destroy and dissolve diseased, dead cells (proteases), it penetrates into the finest capillary bronchi, which are in the form of a dense network of branches in the lower third of the lungs, and dissolves the pus clogging them. The dissolved liquid pus, irritating the bronchial mucosa, causes coughing. A cold does the same thing. We cough and excrete pus sputum. But this is not accomplished at once, but gradually. During 2-3 months of systematic reception of horseradish porridge can thoroughly clean bronchi and lungs from mucus and breathe fully, and therefore fully supply oxygen to all tissues of the body and avoid hypoxia (lack of oxygen), which is another cause of stroke, heart attack, IBS, as well as COPD and other dangerous conditions.

Any vaccine has a number of negative qualities that make its use not always safe. The vaccine cannot be administered to a patient with both acute and chronic illness. You can not vaccinate people suffering from allergic diseases, and, according to the chief allergist of the region, every fourth in the Krasnodar region - allergic. The danger is that when the vaccine is administered, a person is very likely to have an exacerbation up to allergic Quincke's edema. If the larynx and vocal cords are affected, there is a risk of choking, especially in children. If the immune system is depleted, the vaccine can cause the same swine flu that the weakened virus is intended to protect against.

Such teas are soothing for the central nervous system. Hawthorn plays a special role in the prevention of cardiovascular system, where the main place belongs to phytoprophylaxis of atherosclerosis and hypertension, because with sclerotic changes in the vessels are the main means of expanding vessels, reducing spasms and strengthening the walls of blood vessels.

Rheumatism affects people at any age, but more often in childhood and adolescence, and then accompanies the whole life. The trigger moment in its development is usually hypothermia. Rheumatism manifests itself in the form of rheumatic polyarthritis (lesions of the joints, accompanied by pain, swelling and inflammation with an increase in body temperature), rheumatic myocarditis, inflammation of the heart bag - pericardium with effusion of serous fluid into the pericardial cavity. Both of these heart diseases are severe pathologies and often lead to disability.

All over the world, doctors treat juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, the cause of which is unknown! What is known is that pain, swelling of many joint tissues, and progressive stiffness of movement are present. It is also known that rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease. The article states that it is "not an immune deficiency, but rather, in rheumatoid arthritis, the immune system is working excessively hard, but in the wrong way." How can the immune system of a body in which everything is expedient and is a perfect self-regulating system, not work properly? Why?

Periodic disease - this disease is quite common in Armenia and Yerevan, it is even popularly called "Yerevan disease". Medicine qualifies it as collagenosis and refers it to a number of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatism, systemic lupus erythematosus and scleroderma. The common manifestation of these is systemic damage to the body's connective tissue. Tissues that perform a supporting function and connect all the organs of the human body into a unified whole. These tissues include bones, cartilage, vessels, blood, lymph, intercellular fluid, mucous membranes, skin with subcutaneous tissue, hair, nails, as well as the stroma of all internal organs, that is, their framework. As we can see, this binding connective tissue in the body is present everywhere. It permeates the human body from head to toe and even "down to the marrow of the bones."

Hypertension is currently the most widespread pathological condition on the planet. If it used to be considered a disease of the elderly, now more and more often young people have so-called malignant forms of hypertension, leading in 5-10 years to renal failure - renal sclerosis or "primary wrinkled kidney". There are many risk factors predisposing to the occurrence of hypertension: heredity, smoking, overeating, obesity, prolonged physical and nervous overload.

In the organism of people who are obese, the possibility of tumor growth is extremely increased, as all conditions for feeding abnormal, aggressive cancer cells are created: a lot of fat and little oxygen, because when there is obesity, tissue redox processes are disturbed! Needless to say that extra pounds of fat make the heart suffer, provoking shortness of breath, pain and deformities in the joints and spine, bloating in the intestines and liver. Inflammation of the gallbladder and the deposition of all sorts of crystallized metabolic wastes, called "stones," are common companions of obesity.

Angina pectoris, or ischemic heart disease (IHD), is an expression, alas, known to everyone. So widespread is this pathology among the population, and not only in our country, but all over the world. According to WHO statistics, cardiovascular diseases (angina and myocardial infarction) occupy the first place among the causes of mortality in all countries and therefore are called "killer No. 1". The trouble is that regardless of the level of life support of the population, caloric intake, etc., the incidence of this disease is steadily increasing, and in developed countries even faster than in other countries. It has long been evident that the heart pathology is caused by a tense rhythm of life, plenty of stress, smoking and high blood cholesterol.

A person goes through life and carries with him every year an increasing load of toxins entering the tissues as a result of disturbed metabolism (from inside) and from the external environment with air, food, water. From time to time he "stumbles" on this path, i.e. he gets colds, stomach, liver, intestinal diseases, skin diseases, etc. And then suddenly there is IBS, myocardial infarction. The stages of this life stage look depressing: emergency, cardiology department, cardiac surgery. A person with a diseased heart is treated by a cardiologist, a specialist in heart disease, and he treats the heart, not the lungs, liver, kidneys, intestines.

A brain stroke, i.e., hemorrhage in some part of the brain, or prolonged vasospasm, or less commonly, cerebral artery thrombosis, occurs in sclerotically altered vessels. This is a fact that cannot be argued with. But why does cerebral vascular sclerosis occur? This ominous diagnosis, which becomes the cause of not only stroke, but also senile dementia, Alzheimer's disease, parkinsonism, etc.? From excess cholesterol in the blood? Absolutely. From smoking, high blood pressure? Yes, in part. From excessive salt in the diet, lack of seafood in the diet? Yes, to a certain extent. All of the above are negative factors that contribute to the development of sclerosis of cerebral vessels, and they must be avoided.

A bleeding duodenal ulcer of a fifty-four-year-old man was cured in 45 days by the described method. The cure of the ulcer was confirmed by gastroscopy. Three young men from Novokorsunskaya village and two from Krasnodar cured an ulcer in the acute stage, which was also confirmed by gastroscopy.

Cranberry is an evergreen stalked shrub with thin twiggy shoots. Leaves are leathery, small, oblong or egg-shaped, pointed to the end, dark green above and pale green or whitish below. Flowers are located at the ends of shoots on long pedicels. The berries are bright red, pear-shaped or globular, 8 to 12 mm in diameter. The plant flowers in June, and by September the cranberries ripen. If the berries remain on the bush, they are well preserved under the snow until spring.Cranberries were known in the ancient world, particularly in Rome, as "a berry charged with vital energy". In Russia about the benefits of cranberries also knew long ago. This berry and its properties are mentioned in Domostroy, dated XVI century. Cranberry juice was used as a "special medicine" for coughs and as the first remedy for scurvy. Cranberry juice was used to treat soaking wounds and long non-healing ulcers. The cranberry plant was valued for its tonic, antipyretic and thirst-quenching effects. Cranberry morsels were drunk with fever, it was also given when recovering from colds and infectious diseases.

Because of its unique content of mineral salts and other biologically active substances, cranberries are considered one of the most useful berries found in nature. The fruit contains calcium, potassium, iodine, iron, magnesium, silver, copper, lead, barium, manganese, as well as vitamins Bl, B2, K, C, PP. In addition, cranberries contain oflavonoids, glycoside vaccinin, triterpene acids - oleanolic and ursolic, as well as organic acids - benzoic, citric, cinnamic and oxaglutaric. In addition, cranberry fruits contain glucose, fructose, pectin, tannins, tannins, nitrogenous and coloring substances and phytoncides. In particular, a large amount of benzoic acid allows you to store cranberries throughout the winter without heat treatment and the addition of preservatives.

Cranberries can be picked twice a year - in the fall and spring. Spring berries are the richest in biologically active substances. However, they contain a lower percentage of vitamin C. If harvested too early, for example, in early fall, the fruit will be poor in sugars and other useful substances. In addition, such cranberries are often spoiled in storage.In official and folk French medicine blueberries are used to treat and prevent neoplasms of various internal organs. In addition, blueberries are famous as an antimicrobial agent, as it can stop the reproduction of dysentery bacillus and even the causative agent of typhoid fever.
